“Milo's stay at Stella's was great! I appreciated her honesty as he has some treat aggression. He was great with her dog Buddy and liked one of the other dogs staying but not the labradoodle.

“Angela and Dave took great care of Mr Bubbles. We had a last minute cancellation, and had to book with them the night before we left on vacation. They were so nice and understanding. I felt so comfortable leaving our family dog with them. I got pictures and daily updates while he was with them. Bubbles came home happy and tired, I can tell he had a great time playing with their dogs.”

Jill went above and beyond to ensure Mia was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of during our time away. She kept us updated with sweet photos and messages, which made us feel connected to Mia even when we were apart. You can tell that Jill is a true animal lover—her attention to detail and commitment to our dog's well-being was evident in everything she did. Mia absolutely adored her, and we are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Jill is the one! Highly recommend!”
“We were very happy to find Joanne and her family to care for our dog Tipper. They were very friendly and very complimentary of Tipper when we had our meet and greet. Tipper is a high energy pup and got along well with their dog Honey. Joanne sent daily updates with pictures which we appreciated. When we picked Tipper up she had all her things packed up and ready to go. We appreciated that because we were tired from our trip. We were also pleased that Tipper was tired too. This tells us she was given lots of attention and activity during her stay at Joanne’s. Tipper spent the afternoon and evening napping as we did too. We have already mentioned to Joanne that we’d like to use her again this summer. We highly recommend her as a great dog sitter!”
“Dickson is a top-notch sitter. He is very skilled at knowing a dog intuitively. Our dog is rambunctious at times and he was very careful about when he needed to intervene. He gave our dog medicine as requested without a problem. His backyard is huge and fenced and we saw how our dog loved to be out. We cannot give him enough praise! Thank you, Dickson.”
“Byron and his family were excellent hosts and did a wonderful job keeping Gilbert happy. From the minute I dropped Gilbert off, I knew he would be in good hands. I was kept updated throughout the week with pics and texts, and he answered any questions I had promptly and with assurance. I will definitely have Gilbert board with Byron the next time I need to, and would recommend him as a top sitter.”

I understand the importance of secure handling and will always adhere to owner preferences and best practices to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for every dog in my care.

Would surely avail of there services next time we are in the area. 5 stars!”

“Samantha did a great job with our Rocco! We originally were a bit nervous because Rocco is a pitbull and to some the bully breed can be intimidating, but once we all got to meet and she saw Rocco for who he really is, it was a good experience! Rocco gets excited when we tell him that he’s going on his walks now in the morning! Can wait to continue to have Samantha as our Dog Walker!”
“Malachi was great with my pup (that is the important thing) and very eager to provide me with great service. I would recommend him to anyone. We had a few technical glitches, and there are a few thoughts I think I will share with him privately, but those don’t lower his star rating because he really did provide great service. He was very communicative, respected my property, and took great care of of my dog. You should book him and see for yourself.”

He gave our dog medicine as requested without a problem. His backyard is huge and fenced and we saw how our dog loved to be out. We cannot give him enough praise! Thank you, Dickson.”
“Byron and his family were excellent hosts and did a wonderful job keeping Gilbert happy. From the minute I dropped Gilbert off, I knew he would be in good hands. I was kept updated throughout the week with pics and texts, and he answered any questions I had promptly and with assurance. I will definitely have Gilbert board with Byron the next time I need to, and would recommend him as a top sitter.”
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs from a variety of backgrounds, and I’m excited to bring that experience to Rover. I provide loving, personalized in-home daycare and boarding in Spring Grove, IL. I only care for one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup gets my full attention, plenty of love, and a comfortable home environment. I have a large fenced in backyard. I currently own a 4 month old golden retriever and a 15 year old beagle mix. I can provide care to puppies and medically complicated dogs as well. ❤️ I currently own a 4-month-old female Golden Retriever and a 15-year-old Beagle mix. I also have 3 children and work from home, so I am home throughout the day and able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I have a large, fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. I also have a large indoor pen available if needed, along with plenty of toys and chews. I only care for one family's dog(s) at a time, allowing me to provide more personalized attention and supervision.
“Awesome. That's the review. But in all seriousness, easy communication, easy logistics. This warm and friendly couple took care of my dog, and she (the dog) was very happy upon my return. No issues. They do one dog at a time, and have a fenced in yard.”
About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.
“Elizabeth took such great care of our Brixton while my husband and I were away for our wedding! We’re always nervous leaving Brixton with anyone because he's epileptic and requires daily meds at specific times but Elizabeth went above and beyond to understand his condition and ask questions. Her attention to detail and love of pups gave us so much peace of mind. We also loved her daily updates and photos. Would highly recommend booking with her!”
